We’re excited to announce that Lauren Krauth and Michelle Whitworth have been selected as Forty Under 40 honorees by Connect Association and Association Forum, respectively.

Lauren Krauth
As a manager on the Strategic Event Management team, Lauren plans and manages numerous events from board meetings to annual conferences for multiple AMC association partners each year, expertly handling everything from site and platform selection and contracting to creating the project plan and serving as the internal AMC point person to working with vendors. A detailed and nimble project manager, Lauren has successfully navigated many challenges as an event manager, including relocating a meeting just 3 weeks before it was due to take place because of an impending hurricane. When not planning events, she also contributes to the industry through her involvement with the PCMA Greater Midwest Chapter Professional Development Committee. Congratulations, Lauren, on being selected as a Connect Association 40 under 40 honoree!

Michelle Whitworth
As a manager on the Strategic Event Management team, Michelle skillfully plans, manages, and executes education programs and annual conferences for many of AMC’s association partners, consistently going above and beyond to ensure attendees have the best experience possible. Advancing her skills, sharing her expertise and passion for the industry, and the opportunity to make a difference have been guiding forces in her career. She has earned her CMP and DES; served on multiple panels, including at the Association Forum SIG Summit and her alma mater Roosevelt University; is co-chair of AMC’s Education Program Management SIG; and serves on the PCMA Greater Midwest Chapter Sponsorship committee. Congratulations, Michelle, on being selected as an Association Forum Forty Under 40 awardee!
